Crema's Take

Ultimate Grounds Et Al is a genuinely welcoming Oakland neighborhood gem where skilled baristas pull excellent Americanos alongside creative specialty drinks and quality matcha tea. The spacious indoor layout with abundant outlets and charming outdoor seating—including a backyard retreat—makes it equally perfect for a quick caffeine hit or settling in for a few hours, all complemented by homemade-sized pastries and breakfast sandwiches that won't overwhelm your appetite. What really shines here is the staff's genuine warmth and the sense that they've built something special for their community, making every visit feel like you're discovering a place that actually cares.

Greeted me as I entered. Very comfortable seating and plenty of plugs. Smoothie was great and affordable. I wish they had pop ups in the evening here. Such a great venue for that. Cheers!

Cafe serving coffee, hot and iced specialty teas, smoothies, breakfast sandwiches, pastries. Indoor and outdoor seating. Service was super quick! Sandwiches are homemade-sized and not over-the-top. Customizable with bread, Baguette, croissant, or bagel, there are rich options as well as healthy options such as fruit cups, veggie add-ons, and chia seed pudding. Smoothie was made with real fruit, and the apricot walnut rugelach pastry was divine.

Love this cafe in the neighborhood. Came here a few times for tea, coffee and breakfast. A few tables by the street, pretty spacious inside and a backyard with two round tables and a long one. A coffee, milk and a ham egg cheese croissant totals $15.40.
